Mechanics are hard
|
What do you get when your assignment and course material contradicts each others and the presentation that should have been uploaded isn’t there. At least a confused as fuck student. Maybe it’s just me, but the game workshop where I took the role as the mechanics designer was really weird. The paper was full of fill in the blanks of gameplay modes. The description says I should design core mechanics. The course material says there are lots of types of mechanics. The assignment paper only mentions one. I have no idea if it even helps my team if I only write the game modes, because we kinda did that already together. So I wrote some mechanics I guess?  ??? Maybe I’m just overthinking things. My mood didn’t improve when I found out that another assignment everyone in the class though to have been pushed forward is actually due tomorrow. Nice. At least I worked on it for a bit yesterday so I could finish up in an hour, but it seems a lot of people in my class just said fuck it and hopes for the best. Takeaway  |
